Hope that helps.  Please let me know what your priorities are in a city and I can try to give you some suggestions.[/quote]

You're amazing - really grateful for the thorough answers.

What I'm looking for in a city: non-car dependent, social, four seasons (but not crazy like a minnesota winter or anything), friendly, and a good mix of racial/ethnic diversity. I don't mind hipsters at all and I love a good coffee. I'd like a city with some history and more 'traditional' architecture, a congenial atmosphere - farmers markets etc, with an awesome downtown or historic district, and not in the Southwest.

The idea of Newport, Rhode Island really draws me but at the same time it looks so small that I wonder if its a 'families who've lived here for generations type deal' and everyone else is outsiders, you know?

Basically I think I'll end up on a coast somewhere, I just have to *find* the magic place. I did a mini-road trip to Asheville, SC and to Charlotte, NC - but the former was much too small for me. I saw most of downtown in a day and then you need to get on the freeway to go anywhere else. As for Charlotte, its also really car dependent. Charleston really made me fall in love  - it had everything on the wish list except for the four seasons.
